Hi Paul,

Thanks for your work.

The way I understand it napi_complete() is still OK to use, it's just a
wrapper for napi_complete_done(napi, 0). But of course using
napi_complete_done() is better if you want to use the busypolling status
returned. Maybe the commit message can be updated to reflect this
change, how about?

net: ravb: Consider busypolling status when re-enabling interrupts

Make use of the busypolling status returned from NAPI complete to decide
if interrupts shall be re-enabled or not. This is useful to reduce the
interrupt overhead.

While at it switch to using napi_complete_done() as it take into account
the work done when providing the busypolling status.
